THE INTERROGATION 3

"You did what?!" Xaden demanded of his adopted sister.

She swallowed hard and even though she was now the one facing Xaden's wrath she stood firm and told him the truth.

"I told her not tell you." Fiona said. "She was going to tell you but then after everything that happened with Eleanor I told her to wait a while for you to calm down."

Xaden looked at her with rage in his eyes. "You knew?! You knew?!"

She nodded meekly. "Yes I did."

Xaden could hardly even believe his eyes or ears. "You knew all along and you refused to tell me! You too deceived me knowingly?! You kept it away from me! You knew something so grave and yet you decided to even tell her not to tell me?"

"I did it only because I was worried for you." She expressed. "I was not certain on how you will take it."

Xaden gave a bitter laugh. "It seems everyone knows about what is going on. It seems I am the only one who does not know things in my own pack!"
